The movie has recreated the beauty of natural landscapes along with the vibrant life of Vietnamese people and culture through 6 main locations: Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, Hoi An, My Son, and Ha Giang.

“A Tourist’s Guide to Love” directed by Steven K. Tsuchida and produced by Dustin Nguyen, was released globally on April 21. The script was written by Eirene Donohue – Vietnamese-American, inspired by her own travels when returning to discover her roots. The production unit’s representative expects the film to partially recreate the rich and vibrant culture of Vietnam.

Talking about “A Tourist’s Guide to Love”, Eirene Tran Donohue said, even though she was born and raised in the U.S., she always has a special love for Vietnam. So, this movie is like “a love letter” that she wrote for the hometown where her mother was born.

“In the US, many people still associate Vietnam with war images, so I want the audience to know that there is more that they have not known,” said the screenwriter. “This country has beautiful landscapes, beaches, fields, mountains, vibrant cities such as Ha Noi, and ancient ones like Hoi An. Therefore, Vietnam is a harmonious connection between modernity and tradition.”

On the evening of April 18, the premiere ceremony of the film “A Traveler’s Love Journey” took place at the Hanoi Opera House. As a romantic-comedy, audiences were enthralled with American actress Rachel Leigh Cook and her character’s journey not only to discover beautiful places in Vietnam but also to find herself.
